Just a tip:
I see that Teflon tried to remove his street name.

But people can easely backtrace it.

-There are coordinates in the website URL
-Minimap on the bottom left gives it away

You might want to crop those out before placing it on twitter Pete.

I'd make a great undercover spy (NOT!).

I've edited the image in my original post now, so my secret lair is once again safe (except for the quoted posts - Doh!).

Don't worry, I've replaced all the quoted pictures with your updated one now Cliff. Teflon Towers are once again as hidden as the bat cave.

Yup - that's me. We were having new windows fitted at the time. It was only after the fitters left that I realised there were no openings whatsoever in the front room windows they had fitted!!

Our aerial view was taken Dec 2002, Dec 2003, Sept 2006, Dec 2007, then May of this year. The quality of the images has improved markedly over that time.

Streetview July 2008 only.

Interesting to see how much my home has changed in that time.

There is a Google streetview image of my 75 caught at the previous owners home.
